Rain Bird MPR-10Q spray nozzle - 90° quarter-circle - 2.1 to 3.1 m radius

Rain Bird MPR-10Q spray nozzle for lawn corners

The Rain Bird MPR-10Q is a fixed-pattern spray nozzle with a 90° quarter-circle spray pattern and a radius of 2.1 to 3.1 m. It is particularly suitable for automatic irrigation of lawn corners and small to medium-sized garden areas. Wherever two straight lawn boundaries meet, the MPR-10Q allows you to direct water into the required quarter-circle area.

The nozzle belongs to the Rain Bird MPR Series, which features matched precipitation rates for coordinated water distribution. It is a practical choice when you need a longer spray radius than the MPR-8Q while retaining a fixed quarter-circle pattern. The nozzle is suitable for both new irrigation installations and replacement of existing spray nozzles.

90° quarter-circle coverage with up to 3.1 m radius

The Rain Bird MPR-10Q has a fixed 90° spray pattern that distributes water over a quarter-circle area. This makes it particularly suitable for sprinklers installed in lawn corners, such as those next to garden paths, patios, walls and flower beds. The defined spray pattern helps reduce unnecessary watering of surrounding paved areas.

The spray radius ranges from 2.1 to 3.1 m depending on operating pressure. At the optimum pressure of 2.1 bar, the nozzle reaches approximately 3.1 m. Its 15° spray trajectory supports water distribution over this distance. An integrated stainless steel adjustment screw allows the radius to be reduced when required.

Matched precipitation rates for balanced irrigation

MPR stands for Matched Precipitation Rate. Rain Bird MPR nozzles are designed with coordinated precipitation rates to simplify the combination of different spray patterns. Quarter-circle, half-circle and full-circle nozzles can be used together in a properly designed irrigation system to achieve balanced water application.

The Rain Bird MPR-10Q has a relatively low flow rate. The metric manufacturer performance chart lists a rounded flow rate of 1.2 l/min and a flow of 0.09 m³/h at 2.1 bar. Correct sprinkler spacing, sufficient overlap and suitable operating pressure are important for achieving consistent irrigation across the lawn.

Easy installation on Rain Bird spray bodies

The Rain Bird MPR-10Q fits compatible Rain Bird spray bodies and suitable shrub adapters, including models from the Rain Bird 1800 Series. A white fine-mesh filter screen helps prevent debris from entering the nozzle. The stainless steel adjustment screw allows convenient radius adjustment during installation.

For automatic lawn irrigation, the MPR-10Q can be combined with suitable MPR-10H half-circle and MPR-10F full-circle nozzles. These models have comparable spray radii at the same operating pressure but different spray patterns and flow rates. Pressure-regulated spray bodies can help maintain suitable nozzle pressure when supply pressure is higher than required.

Frequently asked questions about the Rain Bird MPR-10Q

What is the spray radius of the Rain Bird MPR-10Q?

The spray radius ranges from 2.1 to 3.1 m depending on operating pressure. At 2.1 bar, the nozzle reaches approximately 3.1 m.

Can the 90° spray angle be adjusted?

No. The MPR-10Q has a fixed quarter-circle spray pattern. However, the radius can be reduced using the integrated stainless steel adjustment screw.

How much water does the MPR-10Q use?

The metric Rain Bird performance chart lists a rounded flow rate of 1.2 l/min. At 2.1 bar, it also lists a flow rate of 0.09 m³/h.

What does MPR mean?

MPR stands for Matched Precipitation Rate. These nozzles are designed with coordinated precipitation rates to support balanced water distribution across different spray patterns.

Which sprinkler bodies are compatible?

The Rain Bird MPR-10Q fits compatible Rain Bird spray bodies and shrub adapters, including models from the Rain Bird 1800 Series.

Can I combine the MPR-10Q with other MPR nozzles?

Yes. It can be combined with suitable MPR-10H half-circle and MPR-10F full-circle nozzles. Their different flow rates and the required sprinkler spacing should be considered during system design.
